`type oserror = i64` carries -errno (Hare's errors::errno-shaped
named-i64). The three convenience wrappers move off the i64 = -1
sentinel and onto the tagged-union surface.
Callers updated across the selfhost (wwdump, w6c, w6a, w6l, ww
driver). The slurp paths in w6c/w6a/w6l/wwdump now match on the
filesize and readall results; the ELF-emitting writeall sites in
w6a/obj.ww are wrapped through two small local helpers (`wrn` for
"wrote N bytes ok?", `wrdrop` for fire-and-forget) so the existing
11-callsite write loop stays readable.
selfhost/test/smoke.ww kept using raw os.read instead of
os.readall: the 990 cgen-match probe compiles smoke.ww standalone
(no `use` expansion), and cross-module type references like
`os.oserror` can't be resolved in that mode.
Two selfhost-side gaps surfaced and got plugged:
- lib/ww/parse/parse.ww parsetype now collapses dotted type names
(`pkg.Type` → single N_TNAME with the joined string), mirroring C
parsetype's dotted-path loop. Local `joindotted` helper because
there's no arena-based string-concat in the selfhost lib yet.
- selfhost/cmd/wcc/check.ww name-resolver applies the dotted-prefix
rule from cmd/wcc/check.c's resolve_typename: split at the last
dot, look up the head as a `use` import, then the leaf as a type.
Plan 9-style w-prefix on the per-arch tools, disambiguating from the
real Plan 9 6c/6a/6l in ref/plan9front/:
cmd/wwc/ → cmd/wcc/ libwwc.a → libwcc.a
cmd/6{c,a,l} → cmd/w6{c,a,l} binary names too
test/wwc/ → test/wcc/ 6 test files w/ w6 prefix
selfhost/cmd mirror in lockstep
bootstrap/amd64/{w6c,w6a,w6l} snapshot binaries (gitignored)
WW_6{C,A,L} → WW_W6{C,A,L} env-var overrides
Plan 9 source-tree refs ("Plan 9 6c shape", ref/plan9front/, etc.)
preserved. Hare-style driver, both C and ww sides:
ww test [path] discover *_test.ww in a directory module, run
each; single-file mode for `ww test foo.ww`
Module-by-name `ww build foo` resolves to foo.ww or foo/foo.ww
via search path (cwd : -I dirs : $WW_LIB)
Default-to-cwd `ww build` / `ww test` build the cwd module
Run pass-through `ww run path arg1 arg2` reaches the program
lib/os: getcwd (79) and getdents64 (217) syscalls power `.` resolution
and directory enumeration on the ww side.
Makefile: wwstage tool deps now include lib/os/os.ww (+ lib/strconv
for wwdump_ww) so lib/* edits force their rebuild instead of leaving
stale binaries — surfaced when test 995 first failed against a stale
w6c_ww built before the lib/os additions.
Test 993 byte-identical parity gate (C-side ww vs ww-side ww_ww on a
build corpus) stays green; all 19 tests pass.
